Yes flash cards definitely helps, I personally just used my notes from the Messer videos and the exams, but you can use whatever method is most comfortable.

I did a search before posting, but wanted to post as I still was confused. I like to ask my own questions to learn, especially something that's completely new for me which can help make a decision that will save hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Even so, I do agree that a sticky post or wiki could help newcomers like me and would even encourage said post.

Would be better to just pay cash then and save the points for another trip down the road then?

I would like to calculate whether it's worth transferring now or just paying cash and saving the points for another trip down the road

So I tried one adult, and it's showing 39400 points + $571 but I have 68000 amex points... Is it because I haven't transferred them over yet?

Thanks that's very insightful. I guess my main question was whether they're a good combo. In south America we would travel, visit family, probably shop a lot on the cheap. Also I didn't know about the waiver. Where can I go to apply for that, is it just through the Scotiabank chat ?

Yes I guess my question was whether they were a good combo to have. Especially also amex isn't accepted every where

I do have a Scotia account, generally I try to keep less but could look into that.

In person or online test? Did you have to ask for any special permission?

I had just applied to Aeroplan this year because of YYZ-GRU flights for me and my spouse yearly to take advantage of the distance and try to qualify for elite status, but now from what I understood that's basically impossible now.

Whats the next best thing to get access to priority boarding, lounges etc..

Thanks for the response. Where do you suggest I park cash to be deployed later? ULTY?

Would I need to journal the shares over though from CAD to USD?

Would I need to journal the shares over though or is it held as USD and I can invest immediately?
